%X New results of isotope analysis of light elements (H, C and S) of a dozen Baltic amber samples are described and discussed. Carbon isotope composition was nearly constant (ca. -23бы), whereas sulphur and hydrogen varied in their isotope compositions from +4 to -28бы and from -171 to -213бы, respectively. The formation and subsequent evolution of this material since its origin in Paleogene time until present is outlined.
